In the Billi 99 comic book series, World War III hit, and nobody noticed. Lost amid the crooked politicians and corrupt corporate practices of the late 20th century, the American Dream became polluted and drowned out, replaced instead with a chasm between the 'haves' and 'have-nots.' No one is more aware of this than Billi Chadam. Daughter of honest industrialist Ray Chadam and heiress to a multi-billion dollar empire, Billi finds herself in a whirlpool of murder and corporate espionage, framed for her father's death, and on the run from those who are supposed to be her allies. But Billi has a secret-- by night Billi dons the mask of the Sword of Toleado, a blade-wielding vigilante bringing hope to the oppressed and striking fear in the oppressors.
